Pros

Our technology and the systems they have put in place for me as a sales agent are phenomenal. Truly the best and I have been in real estate sales for 26 years so I have a lot to compare them with. They make me look smart. The quality of the team members they hire to support us are exemplary. The detail in terms of the branding of the company are elegant and clean. There is a lot of buzz these days about company "culture" and I will tell you Compass has a true commitment to keeping our culture top notch. It's a pleasure to walk in the office and find a truly collaborative environment. The entire Senior Management team is stellar, and fun. Starting with our Robert Refkin and trickling on down.

Cons

There are no cons, but you can't walk in the door and not be willing to stretch your grey matter. There are many tools they have built for us on the technology end but you must take the time to sit down to learn them and utilize them. It is not that time consuming or challenging but does require a commitment.

Pros

People are smart. Very much a “move fast and break things” culture which can be refreshing compared to bureaucracy-heavy corporate life. I don’t agree with their values (if they have any) but what they’re doing is unquestionably working - business outlook is strong.

Cons

Leadership will tell you there’s no ego or self-interest involved in their strategy - that is untrue. It’s an extremely heliocentric culture around the CEO. A lot of the work is based around what people they're guessing he’ll like, but there’s no alignment at the outset and something you worked on for weeks/months will be trashed after one look from him. Their mission is ostensibly about empowering agents but they are solving a problem that pretty much no one was complaining about before they started, and which just so happens to work highly in their favor in terms of market share. It’s just business but very disingenuous- don’t believe the hype that it’s altruistic somehow. Also the CEO loves to share his sob story about his single mother upbringing, but simultaneously enacts some of the most anti-parent policies you could think of.
